Safe and Responsible Boat Disposal
Disposing of an aging boat in De Soto near the Crab Orchard Lake Boat Launch often becomes challenging. Lead paint and other toxic materials require special handling. Our crew dismantles the mast, removes all equipment and electronics from the vessel, and, if necessary, detaches the fly bridge. Landfills generally can’t take larger vessels unless they’re first crushed or demolished. Sit back and let the AAA Rousse team handle it all.
Common Boat Removal Scenarios
Boat removals in De Soto most often begin at driveways or rural properties along Route 149, where owners store aging vessels after seasons on Kinkaid Lake. Crews haul pontoons, bass boats, and jon boats that have sat idle for years, coordinating trailer loading on narrow residential lots before transporting equipment to area salvage facilities in Jackson County.
A second common scenario involves boats left near the Rend Lake area, trailered in from regional fishing trips and later abandoned on gravel pads behind homes. Crews navigate tight access points off Illinois Route 13 to reach these vessels, carefully extracting deteriorated fiberglass hulls and outboard motors before completing disposal runs.
